Statement

Date: July 8, 2020
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Reproduction

Today, Representative Lauren Underwood (IL-14) released the following statement on the U.S. Supreme Court decision weakening the Affordable Care Act's contraceptive coverage requirement.

"A person's access to necessary health care, which includes contraception, should not depend on the personal opinions of their employer. Period. I'm extremely disappointed in today's Supreme Court Decision, and am emboldened to continue to fight for reproductive rights and access to quality health care for all."
